“Had a quaint dinner party with 29 people and it was phenomenal, from the service to the food. My advice, if you want to walk around, dance and take pictures comfortably, definitely no more than 20 people in the patio area. That’s just my humble review, you do you! Everyone still had a great time with the space that was provided.
Thank you Hunkar Family for being so accommodating and being a part of making our wedding night so special! We deeply appreciated it.“

“Was looking for Mediterranean food for my wife and I on a casual evening out and we were not disappointed. Super friendly/helpful staff, wonderful atmosphere, and a wonderful selection of food. My wife and I got a bowl and we both loved it. If you are looking for a counter style Mediterranean place to eat this is a fantastic choice! All the food is made fresh. My wife ordered pita chips and falafel on the side and both were made fresh when we ordered. The pita chips were thick and super crispy. The falafel was incredibly moist too. Highly recommend!“

“Jap konsideraten dhe rekomandimin me te larte per Nana’s Kitchen ne adresen 1809 Hone ave, Bronx NY per varietete e shumllojshme te ushqimeve tradicionale Shqiptare, per te cilat une se bashku me nje grup shokesh prej 15 vetash shijuam fundjaven e shkuar. Gjeta pas 23 vjetesh ku pergatisin ushqimin ne taven e balte, e po ashtu provuam mish qengji te pjekur, pace, qofte te zgares, sallate fshati e buken qe ne shqiptaret e duam shume qe e pergatisnin vete si dhe u embelsuam me bakllavane plot shije. Sherbimi ishte shembullor dhe lokali ishte i dekoruar me shije duke ruajtur traditen Shqiptare. Falenderojme pronarin Landi Kodra per kenaqesine qe na dha per disa ore ne restorantin e tij. Se shpejti TV Alba Life do te sjelle edhe nje kronike me te plote rreth ketij restorani dhe pershtypjet edhe te klienteve te tjere.“

“We stumbled upon Olar Noso and were very happy we did. The food selection was very diverse, offering a nice mix of Spanish tapas and Italian delicacy. They also offer a better than average wine selection, at reasonable (restaurant) prices. The salmon tartare stole the show, but the Gorgonzola stuffed dates, garlic shrimp, and meatball tapas dishes were amazing supporting roles to an overall great meal. Their homemade potato chips made for great table pickins as well. We'll definitely be back to try some of their meat entrees (someone near us had the skirt steak and that ranks top on the list). Well done Olar Noso (but I'll take my skirt steak medium rare when I return;)“

“Great food, very good service with a smile 😃“

“Excellent food, large portions and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend NAYA!“

“I ordered a beef shawarma sandwich — the taste was really good, but I wish it had more meat. The flavor was there, but it felt a bit too light overall.

They also gave me a sample of lentil soup, and honestly, it was amazing! Full of flavor and really comforting. I didn’t expect much, but it surprised me in the best way.“

“I’m a repeat customer and I cater from here when I’m entertaining guests. Reliably delicious food you can count on. Flavors, quality and freshness are always 💯 perfect. Get compliments when I’ve catered. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in North Jersey. Love the owner and staff who are so kind.“

“So based off reviews I decided to eat here and boy did it not disappoint! The food was very flavorful and large quantity of food. The cashier welcomed me answered my questions and served me with a great customer service and pleasant personality. I also ordered DoorDash a day later and they custom made the order the same way I requested it while at the restaurant I cant believe they remeber me. Assumes food assume service !!!“

“Great food , great prices. Friendly welcoming staff. the classic shawarma sandwich and falafel sandwich are delicious. do yourself a favor and get the mint lemonade, you'll be hooked :)“

“The brunch and the twin waitresses where amazing. I can’t wait to come back“

“This was my first experience at Aurora Honestly I picked it because one of the few that still had reservations available. Yet it turned out to be a great choice. My meal was very good, the service was perfect and the portions surprisingly generous. My only disappointments were the iced tea was not brewed and did not taste good. Also I felt it was a bit poor taste for an upscale establishment to charge a credit card surcharge.“

“Best Ethiopian cuisine I’ve had outside of Ethiopia! Service was great, atmosphere was vibrant, live music, open mic, poetry this place has it all!“

“They are great, friendly staff with great food.“

“We had the famous Dominican pizza and the chofan and for me the chofan was on point but my son loved the Dominican pizza.I went on a Friday night and I had no idea that this place turned into a club. So if you want a late dinner and then a party this is the place.“

“In the sea of Italian places on Arthur ave is this greek spot. It is pretty authentic which I love. I went with the pork gyro platter and it was amazing. The pork is roasted slowly on the spit and comes out perfect. The platter comes with three dips but I am not a fan of taramosalata (fish roe dip). The others were good. I also loved the greek salad and it was as authentic as you can get. I would recommend and come back.“

“Service was great, the staff is friendly. Falafel pita was very good and affordable. I would come back!

Update: I was craving samosas and figured this would be the place to go. No regrets! I got the veggie ones and they were great. Not overly spicy and generous filling. The filling had a mashed potatoes texture which I loved.“

“Zaffron Bloom is an absolute GEM in Hasbrouck Heights. The family owned restaurant offers authentic Persian cuisine cooked fresh to order. The owners are extremely kind and will always do their best to make sure the food is good and you enjoy yourself. I’ve been looking for some authentic persian food for a while and this is easily my top choice in NJ. Seriously if you are ever in the area and are considering going here it is well worth it.
The food is cooked fresh when you order so take some time to enjoy the atmosphere and menu. They have everything from homemade cultural teas to fantastic kebabs and desserts. Not to mention their food is Halal for anyone curious. Like I said before if you want to enjoy some genuine Persian food there is no where else to look!“

“We sat outside. Our party was served quickly and efficiently. Food was very good.“

“Great place to enjoy food with co-workers, friends and family, profesional and friendly service, they have live music, went with my gilr friends this past saturday and had a very good time, can't wait to go back, congrats to the whole staff!!!!“
